In the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo, where about half the population of this small South American country resides, they are undergoing such severe drought that the regulating bodies are adding salt water to the public water supply, while encouraging residents to purchase bottled water.
Angry at being forced to spend money on what should be a human right, Uruguayans have taken to the streets in protest.

(Note for clarity: This is NOT a case of brackish water backing up from the ocean into potable water supplies, which can happen. It's a deliberate tactic by the government to stretch out water supplies.)

It's a shame that drinking/cooking water separated from toilet/cleaning/irrigation water is still a rare thing in rich countries.

And poor countries need even longer to adapt. Such a waste.
